[squid-users] NTLM Authentication Problem

I'm having a problem getting NTLM authentication working between Squid
2.5STABLE4 and Samba 3.0.0 running on Linux 2.4.18. I've read the
archives, faq, how-to, walk-thru, etc, and believe I have everthing
correctly configured. I'm using the helper that is part of Samba 3.0,
not the Squid helper. Basic authentication works fine with the helper,
but I cannot get ntlmssp working.

I set group read,execute access to the winbind pipe directory and full
read,write,execute on the pipe itself.
drwxr-x--- 2 root squid 72 Oct 27 21:21 winbindd_privileged/

srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Oct 27 21:21 pipe=

I have samba configured with ads but am not using it. I joined the
domain with rpc and am using security=domain in smb.conf.

The wbinfo commands work fine:
#wbinfo -t
checking the trust secret via RPC calls succeeded

#wbinfo -a TSTDOM\\testuser%testpass
plaintext password authentication succeeded
challenge/response password authentication succeeded

I can also authenticate successfully with the helper from the command line:
#ntlm_auth --username testuser --password testpass
NT_STATUS_OK: Success (0x0)

However, when I try to use ntlm authentication from a browser I get this
in cache.log:
[2003/10/28 10:43:41, 10] utils/ntlm_auth.c:manage_squid_request(1061)
  Got 'YR' from squid (length: 2).
[2003/10/28 10:43:41, 10]
utils/ntlm_auth.c:manage_squid_ntlmssp_request(312)
  got NTLMSSP packet:
[2003/10/28 10:43:41, 10]
utils/ntlm_auth.c:manage_squid_ntlmssp_request(322)
  NTLMSSP challenge

The browser gets the Squid Cache Access Denied error page. This happens
with both IE 6.0 SP1 and Mozilla 1.5.

Squid configured with:

Squid Cache: Version 2.5.STABLE4
configure options: --enable-async-io --enable-storeio=ufs,aufs
--enable-auth=ntlm,basic --enable-removal-policies
--enable-cache-digests --enable-kill-parent-hack --disable-ident-lookups

authentication in squid.conf configured as:

auth_param ntlm program /usr/local/samba/bin/ntlm_auth -d 10
--helper-protocol=squid-2.5-ntlmssp
auth_param ntlm children 5
auth_param ntlm max_challenge_reuses 0
auth_param ntlm max_challenge_lifetime 2 minutes
#
auth_param basic program /usr/local/samba/bin/ntlm_auth -d 10
--helper-protocol=squid-2.5-basic
auth_param basic children 5
auth_param basic realm Highmark Proxy Server
auth_param basic credentialsttl 2 hours

acl internet proxy_auth REQUIRED
http_access allow internet
http_access deny all

samba configured with:
--with-winbind --with-winbind-auth-challenge --with-libsmbclient
--with-ads --with-krb5=/usr/local

smb.conf configuration:
